Uckfield Town Council is planning to mark the Queen's Diamond Jubilee next year.
Deputy mayor Cllr Duncan Bennett asked at a full meeting of the council at the beginning of the month whether anything would be done and members agreed something should be organised.
The environment and leisure committee is to be asked to do that.
Events to mark the Queen's 60 years on the throne will take place across the country over the first weekend of June 2012. There is to be an extra bank holiday on Tuesday, June 5.
The traditional Bank Holiday at the end of May, 2012, is due to be moved to June 4 to make it a four-day weekend.
If you are planning a right royal event we would be pleased to hear about it.
We already know a street party is being planned in Hempstead Gardens because organisers of a celebration held in April to mark the royal wedding, of Princess William to Catherine Middleton, said they would be out on the street again to celebrate the diamond jubilee in 2012.
